HR round is the final round of the interview in many companies. In this round, interviewer checks our communication skills, behavior, stability, attitude, flexibility etc. They will check whether you are suitable or not for a particular post.
Things to focus for HR Round:
Communication skills:
Try to improve your communication skill and accent. Because the average number of students are getting rejected for bad communication.
For improving your communication skills, try to watch English movies and read English newspaper regularly. Communicate with your friends in English even though if you are not too good, after practicing only you can improve your Communication skills.
A lot of expectation:
An interviewer has much expectation from candidates. Try to stand on their expectations as much as you can.
Lack of Concentration:
Listen to interviewer carefully while they are saying or asking anything from you. Sometimes it happens like we don’t hear questions properly and then we are confused and we don’t know what to say.
Flexible:
Most of the company prefers an employee who is flexible who are willing to work in different shifts and locations. Even though if you are not comfortable to work on shifts, say Yes, sometimes they ask these type of questions to check your flexibility.
Lack of Confidence:
Confidence is good for everyone but don’t be overconfident. Answer confidently whatever you know and stick to your point. Most of the time interviewer will try to confuse you but don’t get confused. Accept if you gave a wrong answer.
Real or fake Answer:
Give honest answers and don’t provide any wrong answer or fake answer. Interviewer likes to hear only good things about their company but doesn’t overdo so that it looks fake. Keep it natural and to the point.
The interviewer starts noticing us from the first step we enter in the interview hall and they may make presumptions based on the way you are presenting yourself. So be professional and discipline.
Dressing Sense: Dress and Appearance are two important things when you go for a job interview. So dress formally in an interview. Clothes should be neat an clean, tuck your shirts. Wear contrasting colors sky-blue and black, black and white etc.
In some instance, students will not get selected even though if they performed well in an interview. The reason behind this can be multiple like - Interviewer may not be right is selecting the correct candidate as he/she is also human, the quota of selection is filled and you gave interview at end and on fewer occasions, you might be neglected.
So even, if you are not selected that does not mean that you are not suitable for that job. This can be due to multiple reasons so you should carry forward with your experience.
Figure out your mistakes which you committed in the Interview. Note it down and do not repeat it in the next Job Interview.
